Golden Blood
“She checked her watch as she walked to the ocean’s edge and back, pulling in large gulps of air. Six and a half minutes faster than yesterday.
She didn’t want to admit why she had pushed herself so hard. Her father would go into a lengthy lecture if he knew how much her limbs were burning right now. If anyone had seen her tearing down the beach that fast, she’d be in big trouble. They weren’t supposed to show their true colors in public.
Shaking out her arms, she rolled her neck and walked down... the beach access pathway to the back of the house. The pool looked inviting, but she didn’t think her legs would cope with a swim. Her body had also adjusted to southern Florida’s heat and the idea of swimming in January now seemed ridiculous.
She paused by one of the blue and white striped loungers to stretch. Placing her left ankle on the back of the chair, she folded her body over her long leg and winced at the pull. Her hamstrings would be paying her back big time in the morning.MoreLess
